Current NWA World's Heavyweight Champion Matt Cardona recently spoke with Sports Illustrated's Justin Barrasso on a number of topics, including how his doctors told him he will be out of action for up to 5 months, but that his goal is to return within 3 months.
Matt Cardona also talked about how he won't remain at home injured and how even though he will not be in the ring competing for the next 3 months, this won't be a vacation and he will still be as busy as ever.
Matt Cardona said:
“My doctor said that the recovery is five months, but my goal is three.”
“I’m still going to be making towns, I’ve contacted every promotion I had booked and all but two are still bringing me in, because they know I sell tickets and I rescheduled with those other two. I’m not going to be stuck at home injured, I won’t be in the ring, but this isn’t a three-month vacation, I’m just as busy as I was, even with a torn bicep.”
Matt Cardona also spoke about how the timing of his in-ring return will be just in time for the match he wants, which is against Tatanka.
Matt Cardona said:
“The timing is perfect.” “I’m training to be back in time. It fits perfectly in that three-month window, and I want my first match back to be against Tatanka. He can still go. Watching him wrestle makes you think it’s still 1993. And how cool would it be to beat someone whose action figure I had?”
